Psychological Fear: Dr. Pippa Grange

Don’t Tell Me The Score - A podcast by BBC Radio 4 - Thursdays

Understanding the cost of fear and how to face and replace it - with the former England football psychologist, who was credited with helping transform the team at the 2018 World Cup. Pippa explains the difference between 'in the moment fear', and 'not good enough fear', and it's the latter that is the focus of this conversation and which is lurking behind many of our self-defeating behaviours. Pippa talks about the subtle role fear plays when we shame ourselves and others - as well as in tribalism that goes too far. She explains why seeing and facing fear is crucial if we are to address the real reasons for being stuck in our lives, and outlines ways to replace the narratives we hold, and move in the direction of connection and purpose. Pippa's new book is called Fear Less: How to win at life without losing yourself. Thoughts, ideas and questions @simonmundie
